I write to also warn you--people of power will go to great lengths to silence reporters and bloggers, even threaten their lives with &quot;accidents&quot;, towards family members, or hurt you financially. Don&#39;t underestimate their power and influence. When their financial lives are at risk, they can and will get ugly, going after innocent people who are only trying to expose the harsh truth in order to save more victims, some who took the fall for their involvement in crimes to avoid jail time.<br /><br />The case involved a quasi-high-society victim, dad former assistant DA (how much pull can that buy?) which dysfunctional family went through great lengths to cover up details--sending what many believe was an innocent man to prison with no real evidence-30 yrs to life, no parole. <br /><br />I agree the legal system in MA is a cesspool. People with money, connections, fame can and will do whatever it takes to keep their family and empires intact and out of the public&#39;s eye. They are notorious for backroom dealing the public will never be aware of until something as ugly and sinister as this case is finally brought out into the open. <br /><br />Women have been dieing at the hands of their abusers for years without so much as a quick flash on breaking news and story is forgotten. The Boston Globe (story of 3/23 &quot;For Jared Remy, leniency was the rule until one lethal night&quot;) should be commended. But, the paper is also are gaining from this tragedy because of Jerry Remy&#39;s legacy with the Red Sox.<br /><br />At age 17 when he caused severe brain damage to his classmate, which ended his life at the young age of 22--was a wake up call.<br /><br />I&#39;m guessing there is a lesson to be learned for the suburbanites of Weston/Sudbury and beyond. The rich don&#39;t understand that throwing money at problems doesn&#39;t solve them. Appearances can be deceiving, especially when they want their kids to get into the best schools and colleges. Too bad they forgot teaching them good values comes first.<br /><br />I really hope authorities make it right this time. This guy is dangerous to society and should remain in prison. If this was in fact directly related to his abuse of steroids, then LE should be doing more. Just because you are a star athlete in organized sports (or dad is popular now w/broadcasting gig), it does not give you the right to do whatever you want without facing the same consequences everyone else must face.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8502819889796573904.post-79907292412886689922014-03-31T08:03:08.143-04:002014-03-31T08:03:08.143-04:00&quot;This post is disgraceful.

Jared&#39;s lawyer denies it; so does everyone else in the process.Nor does the fact that the other two Remy children had assault charges prove anything about their upraising, though living with a sibling like Jared may well have harmed them. This is entirely hindsight bias, based on supposition and speculation, and absolutely unjust and unfair. Jared was a 34 year old man when he allegedly killed his girlfriend. At that age, he is 100% responsible for his actions. There is no blood on anyone&#39;s hands but the killer&#39;s.&quot;<br /><br />Quote from the Boston Globe: &quot;Remy was asked if he regretted enabling Jared by financially supporting him throughout his son&#39;s troubled years.<br /><br />&quot;Yes, of course we did,&quot; Remy said. &quot;What are we guilty of? We&#39;re guilty of getting him lawyers when he was in trouble. We were well aware what was going on with Jared and we tried our best to do everything along the way to get him as much help as he possibly could. And then for a stretch it seemed like he had his life in order and then of course everything caved in and we felt as parents... did we enable him? Yes, we paid for lawyers, we paid for a psychiatrist, we paid for the help that we thought he needed. I think a lot of families would have done the same thing. Others would not have. Others would have thrown him out into the street, but that just wasn&#39;t our way. When you look back on it, was it the right thing to do? I don&#39;t have an answer to that. I really don&#39;t have an answer for that.&quot;<br /><br />&quot;When asked if he was paying for Jared&#39;s lawyer now with the pending murder trial, Remy replied simply: &quot;Yes.&quot;<br /><br />My post is disgraceful? You bleeding heart lawyers helping psychopaths like Jared Remy slither off because of their connections and technicalities are the disgraceful ones. Did you bother to read the article where judge after judge turned a blind eye to his crimes?<br /><br />Kind of interesting that Jared Remy kept getting released when he was clearly a dangerous person. Jerry Remy isn&#39;t on trial here, but he and his wife and all the connections he pulled had a part in that murder. That is the truth and what&#39;s disgraceful is people like you who split hairs to deflect the attention away from the real reasons.Mike Ochshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15480137092187838932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8502819889796573904.post-86187770722043766422014-03-29T08:02:46.103-04:002014-03-29T08:02:46.103-04:00This post is disgraceful.

Many other ...I completely agree with this article. Many other posts seem too hesitant to place any blame on the parents because let&#39;s face it, people love Jerry. And isn&#39;t that a big piece of the issue here?<br /><br />A few other things to add:<br />1) When Jared&#39;s criminal history is listed in the media, there is a stretch of time where he didn&#39;t have any issues/run ins with the law. I don&#39;t buy it. What I think is that his parents got better at bribing Jennifer and anyone else not to press charges. It was noted that Jennifer was dependent upon their financial support, so I&#39;m sure they used that for leverage.<br />2) At what point do parents shut off the financial support and force their kids to make it on their own? Or say to Jared, it&#39;s time to go to rehab and anger management and stop acting like a monster. But no - Jerry got him a job at the Red Sox (and was pissed from what I heard that the Sox fired him) and then Jerry lists Jared as an employee at one of his other companies. Must be nice to keep enabling.<br />3) Those in legal positions need to stop acting like groupies and stop giving special treatment. How on earth did this guy get released in the first place?<br />4) We have yet to hear from more of Jennifer&#39;s friends and neighbors about all the other times he hurt and/or threatened her. This didn&#39;t come out of the blue. <br />5)I don&#39;t expect Jerry or Phoebe Remy to come clean about how they pressured Jennifer not press charges. But we all know differently. They have been too focused on keeping Jerry popular as his empire has grown significantly over the years. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
